I am going to put Bama on no buy list - like China.

There are lots of good things about the global economy, but fricking Chinese crawfish tails are not one of them. Off topic, but I've spent a couple of weeks in China. I wouldn't eat aything that came out of that poluted place.

I know what you mean. I live in Norway, and there is a company that sells popular skate boarding clothes that have an A similar to the Alabama A on their hats, shirts, etc. So it looks like all of these young Norwegian kids have this Alabama gear on...it's torture! Can't even get away from it way over here!

Oh the irony of the situation and an election year at that. Should you put that Republican candiate sign with the elephant plastered on it in your front yard or not?

I kept an eye on my neighbor's house while he and his family spent the Christmas break in Alabama with family. He brought me back some local products as a thank you - one of which was Nick and Terry Saban BBQ sauce (proceeds to charity, the label said).

I appreciated the sentiment but that sh*t didn't make it in my front door.

That is about as stupid as not buying Louisiana hot sauce- anything cajun- or boycotting corn dogs if LSU would have won.

But then again, that beating that Bama gave out on the 9th would have left a bad taste in my mouth.

Kinda like how I tell my parents' French Bulldog that even though she's a bulldog, she is still an LSU dog when we're playing MSU or UGA?

I think its a solid idea. We should all insure that no $$$ from LSU fans end up in the hands of companies that are Bama boosters and donate money to the program.

We wouldn't give the Iranians money (in theory). Why would we help fund Bama football?

Bama foods is owned by Welch's. So all Welch's products should be boycotted. Welch's is not a supporter of any University in the state of Alabama.
But they do hire Americans that pay into Social security and medicare-- unlike a company from Iran.

I never knew poptarts were on the peanut butter/jelly aisle. I would've thought they would've around the cereal or snacks. Thanks for the heads up if I ever have to buy any.
